This species appears to me tou be closely allied in shape and
structure to the preceding, although some authors have made it
the type- of a different genus.” Schomburgk found if - in thé'
deepest woods of British Guiana, where, he says, “ it seems to ,
have an extensive range. They are seen in. solitary spots; and
sit alone, more rarely in pairs, phlegmatic and sorrowful-looking
upon the branches of the low bushes. They are by no means
shy, and let one approach within six or eight'steps, when, they fly
a little way farther and resume again their sorrowful melancholy
position. Their food is insects.” It extends thence down to the
banks of the Amazon, where it was procured by Mr. Wallace.
